Abstract. The Green’s function for 5-dimensional counterpart of the

MIC-Kepler problem (Kepler potential plus SU (2) Yang–Mills instanton plus Zwanziger-like 1 /R

2 centrifugal term) is constructed on the basis of the Green’s function for the 8-dimensional harmonic oscillator.

1. Introduction

Coulomb Green’s functions in a n -dimensional Euclidean space have been constructed in [1]. The results for the cases n = 2 , 3 , 5 can be deduced from the oscillator Green’s functions in N = 2 , 4 , 8 dimensions due to Levi-Civita,

Kustaanheimo–Stiefel [2] and Hurwitz transformations [3], respectively.

Moreover [4], the N = 4 oscillator representation allows to obtain Green’s function for 3-dimensional MIC-Kepler problem [5] (Kepler–Coulomb potential plus U (1) Dirac monopole plus Zwanziger’s [6] 1 /R

2 centrifugal term).

In this paper we construct the Green’s function for 5-dimensional counterpart of the MIC-Kepler problem [7] (Kepler potential plus SU (2) Yang–Mills instanton plus Zwanziger-like 1 /R

2 centrifugal term). We avoid a tedious procedure of path integration and deduce our result from the well-known expression for the 8-dimensional oscillator Green’s function by exploiting the Hurwitz correspondence between these 5- and 8-dimensional problems [7–9].
